Monitoring Study on Groundwater Quality of an Alluvial plane in the North Han River Basin

북한강 수계 충적평야의 지하수 수질 모니터링 연구

The effects of nonpoint source pollutants from a small agricultural alluvial watershed on groundwater quality were investigated and analyzed in this study . Water quality factors of pH, electric conductivity(EC), total nitrogen(T-N), nitrate nitrogen(NO3-N), ammonium nitrate(NH4-N), and total phosphorus(T-P) concentrations were monitored at the watershed located in Shinbook-myon , Chunchon, Kangwon-Do, Korea for 2 years. Groundwater samples of about 2 liters from 7 to 20 farm wells were regulary collected and analyzed with respect to the water quality factors which were again anlayzed with respect to time and land uses of residential , agricultural , livestock feedlot, greenhouse, and natural areas.
